6 Feet Beneath The Moon (Vinyl)
South-east London's King Krule, the 18 year old singer/ producer/ songwriter also known as Archy Marshall, has quietly and stealthily crafted a reputation for himself as one of the most raw and startling voices of a new generation. With his unexpectedly deep and mournful baritone tracing fissures of disappointment and social disorientation to devastating effect, Marshall has harnessed the inchoate frustration and fury of youth and translated it into a series of brilliant singles released on the likes of True Panther Sounds and Rinse over the past few years.
Now comes "6 Feet Beneath the Moon", his first full-length on XL Recordings and produced by Rodaidh McDonald (The XX, Savages, How To Dress Well), and with it, the much anticipated unveiling of the full scope and scale of Marshall's vision. Over the course of 14 tracks including single "Easy Easy", Marshall's passions and confusions are rubbed raw and laid bare, the only connective tissue throughout it all being one of searing lyrical clarity paired with a confounding musical deftness which utterly belies his tender years.
"6 Feet Beneath the Moon" - released, incidentally on August Friday 23rd, the day before Marshall's 19th birthday - is the sound of a young man growing up and attempting to grapple with the realities of the world he inhabits, an unsparing dissection of the social decay that has begun to set in around him - and a fascinating, brutal journey it is too.
